Calcium/vitamin D supplementation and cardiovascular events.
BACKGROUND Individuals with vascular or valvular calcification are at increased risk for coronary events, but the relationship between calcium consumption and cardiovascular events is uncertain. We evaluated the risk of coronary and cerebrovascular events in the Women's Health Initiative randomized trial of calcium plus vitamin D supplementation. METHODS AND RESULTS We randomized 36,282 postm...
متن کاملVitamin D Supplementation and Cardiovascular Disease Risk
Many studies, 1,2 but not all, have shown that low bone density is associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Vitamin D deficiency is common in the elderly and is associated with osteoporosis; however, the association of endogenous 25-OH vitamin D (25-OH D) levels with CVD events is controversial.3,4 CVD rates are higher during winter seasons and at increased geographic latitu...

متن کاملVitamin E supplementation and cardiovascular events in high-risk patients.
BACKGROUND Observational and experimental studies suggest that the amount of vitamin E ingested in food and in supplements is associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease and atherosclerosis. METHODS We enrolled a total of 2545 women and 6996 men 55 years of age or older who were at high risk for cardiovascular events because they had cardiovascular disease or diabetes in addition t...
متن کاملVitamin D deficiency and supplementation and relation to cardiovascular health.
Recent evidence supports an association between vitamin D deficiency and hypertension, peripheral vascular disease, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, coronary artery disease, and heart failure. The effect of vitamin D supplementation, however, has not been well studied. We examined the associations between vitamin D deficiency, vitamin D supplementation, and patient outcomes in a large coh...
